prot’s ef-deuteranopia-dark, usually. https://protesilaos.com/emacs/ef-themes https://protesilaos.com/emacs/ef-themes otherwise, some solarized variant.

I too use Prot's themes, but a different one per season: (defun light-theme-for-this-season () "Return the light theme for this season." (pcase (current-meteorological-season) ('spring 'ef-spring) ('summer 'ef-summer) ('autumn 'ef-day) ('winter 'ef-light))) Each season starts on the first of the month: March, June, September, December. I also have a little script that switches to the dark theme with the rest of the system, and it loads modus-vivendi, another one of Prot's collection, now bundled with Emacs. His themes are cool because he makes sure every colour has a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5, and because he doesn't agree with the stupid trend of making comments so light against the background, they're unreadable. Comments need to stand out!

    I have GNOME do the auto dark theme thing automatically, so all Emacs has to do is listen to dbus signals and act accordingly: (defun theme-switcher (value) (pcase value ;; No Preference. Used by GNOME to indicate light theme. (0 (sph/load-light-theme)) ;; Prefers dark (1 (sph/load-dark-theme)) ;; Prefers light (2 (sph/load-light-theme)) (_ (message "Invalid key value")))) (defun handler (value) (theme-switcher (car (car value)))) (defun signal-handler (namespace key value) (if (and (string-equal namespace "org.freedesktop.appearance") (string-equal key "color-scheme")) (theme-switcher (car value)))) (dbus-call-method-asynchronously :session "org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop" "/org/freedesktop/portal/desktop" "org.freedesktop.portal.Settings" "Read" #'handler "org.freedesktop.appearance" "color-scheme") (dbus-register-signal :session "org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop" "/org/freedesktop/portal/desktop" "org.freedesktop.portal.Settings" "SettingChanged" #'signal-handler)
